Um FYI the record for blocked shots is 10 by Hassan Martin.

Mitchell has now tied Kenny Green for 2nd with 8.

Blue Man

Carey is so good when he doesn’t have to dribble.

Blue Man

So low post defense. This is a fun thing.

Blue Man

This might derail the thread but it’s worth saying - but through three games was it literally that Cox sold his soul to let Fatts do whatever he wanted and that screwed everything up?

This looks like a very different team.

Blue Man

So Mitchell is shooting 100% on the season!

Also Carey is such a good athlete. Hope he stays in a position to succeed. We’re a better team if he’s productive.

Blue Man

Defense looks very active.

Hate that we just settle for early in the clock threes though.

Blue Man

Lmao remember when PC people tried to compare Ashton-Langford to Jeff dowtin. Lmaoooo

Blue Man

This Thomas kid has pure PG written all over him. What a find.

Credit where credit is due. No one saw this kid coming.

Absolutely terrible. Thanks for giving your everything while you were here. Prayers to your family and friends.

Curious about the security screening process/experience overall.

Were there mask police? Did it not really matter?

Blue Man

After attending last nights game am convinced the home court advantage will be much lesser as long as this policy continues. It's just bizarre seeing dozens of masked cheerleaders. Thanks Governor! Cheerleaders and children at school? Mask 'em! The governor at every random public event? No mask. Sc...

Great, covid hot takes have spread from the covid thread to this one. If it spreads further, we may need to shut the board down for two weeks to stop the spread. I also get a kick out of people calling others sheep when they belong to the party with a phrase "where we go one we go all"......

Blue Man

Lmao. So even though you can be vaccinated and get/pass the virus, you don’t need to show your negative test. So you could be vaccinated and Covid positive yet still go to the game. Science. Masks haven’t stopped Covid for a year plus, but sure - mask up! Doesn’t have to be N95, just wear whatever r...

Blue Man

The state is 90% vaxxed. Why is there still an emergency order and why are masks required anywhere? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Mid term elections in a year. They need the "emergency" funding to keep pouring in from the federal government, because this state can't manage it's expense...

Blue Man

Just received an email saying pubs will be open. It did not specify whether they’d be a limit on people. So they’re letting us drink in close proximity with no masks, but then making us put our masks back on after we leave. All of us will also have vaccines, some even with a booster, or a negative ...

Blue Man

My favorite part of this will be going to the coaches show without a mask but then having to go to the RC with the same people 2 days later with one.

Science!

Blue Man

OK, I understand this view is oriented to the negative side and to be fair Cox has had his highlights in his URI tenure like the second VCU game in '19-2'0 when Dowtin electrified the Ryan crowd with three treys in succession (where, oh where is the replay of that game). However, the downward perfo...

Blue Man

Bc they’d rather watch a live basketball game vs trying to make a statement that will have little to no impact on said protocols. I do think they will eventually relax the mask mandate as cases continue to fall. And yea, I don’t see the mask mandate lasting all season. “It’ll just be 15 days so tha...

Blue Man

Like how do people not realize this dude is a troll yet?

Blue Man

Expressing dissatisfaction and pointing out the contradictions and hypocrisy of masking rules = "far right extremist" now...got it. It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance. But here's the thing - nob...

Blue Man

Feels like the wind is out of our sails and we're going to get slaughtered. I hope I'm wrong.

Much like the Red Sox, maybe this just isn't a team of front runners and we need our backs against the wall to perform.

Blue Man

What a surprise, Blue Man believes anything less than being undefeated going into conference play means we should blow up the program. He wants to set the stage for tearing the program down all season long. My guess for the season is 23-8, and there will be some great wins and bad losses as usual. ...

Blue Man

Any loss on that pathetic OOC schedule will result in a meltdown on this board. 55 pc is the highest ranked opponent? Gonna be interesting on this board this year. Which is unfortunate. People think you should just automatically win because you have better players. So many factors affect the game. ...

Is it us? Like why is it every time any major program is close to getting over a hump we shoot ourselves in the foot. Weren’t ready from the jump. Fumbled snap - and did i see our receivers not wearing gloves in a monsoon? I mean I get it whatever works for you works - but we had our first 4 passes ...

Blue Man

Amazing what winning does for a programs visibility and the buzz that comes with it.

Well deserved for Fleming and these guys. Awesome to have a football program.

Blue Man

Imagine having that guy on your team and saying - nah, let the 28% shooter have the ball and take the shot.

Blue Man

Ah, here we are. Our fans thinking they're holier than thou and skipping out on a rivalry game where bars and restaurants will be packed pre and post game, loud and sold out arena, beers in seats during games, a chance to boo Clown Cooley and hopefully watch us win. Yes Cooley was chicken shit for ...

Blue Man

If you roll over your tickets to the following year, are you guaranteed the same seats? At the same price? No. Full blown refund this year, they're not doing rollovers. I'll take my chances that my seats will still be available, as I can't imagine people will be clamoring for tix. And if not? I'll ...

Blue Man

I don't remember a time in my life where I was checking the football board more than basketball - but here we are. Absolutely feels like a must win, especially with a road date at Nova looming. Hopefully they're not looking ahead to that game. A couple of landmines do loom ahead, but Rhody is going ...

Blue Man

You can tell from the stands that we want to be a football school. Need to take care of business against Towson, and I think you’ll sell out no matter how we do against Nova on the road.

1st place in the CAA midway through the season, on the way to a top 15 ranking. This is fun.

I’m optimistic. Good football might convince the kids to stick around and party in gansett tonight

BlueMan. Do we need to keep rehashing this about Cox's first year and the turn key roster. Really We were no way an NCAAT team. There were too many A10 teams better than us. His second year, yeah we were better but most pre-season predictions had us picked around 4-5 in the A10. All of a sudden Cox...

Blue Man

Blue Man I totally disagree, the worst thing would be to fire him after going 20-11 and start all over. But no way would that happen, so you can forget that scenario. IMO I agree with you, I don't think he would get fired after a 20-11 season. That would be purgatory. That's what Baron did. I think...

Blue Man

That's crazy considering other less meaningful games in years past have been sellouts. This is probably the biggest Rhody football game since??? A win and we would likely be sniffing the Top 10 in polls. Certainly since '95 with Chris Hixon and the loss to Delaware in the Yankee championship. Would...

Saturday October 9, UCONN (0-6) visits UMASS (0-5) in Amherst in a battle of two winless FBS Independents. UCONN is favored by 3.5 points I mean this - UConn might be the worst football team I've ever seen. And I was in school for a winless season at URI. They lost to Holy Cross already. That's 3-2...

Blue Man

*it’s nothing personal. No one should be so offended by objective facts that they need to go that route. Dave Cox and his family are phenomenal human beings. Very easy to root for. Most importantly they are an asset to the URI community. He is a phenomenal ambassador for the program. I want him to w...

As previously stated , I expect us to be much improved this season and Thorr will give him a short term extension (probably 2 years) If we exceed all expectations and do "Dance" then he will be rewarded with a much longer contract extension, that is if he decides to stay. If by chance we ...

Blue Man

Eh, I think you're backpedaling here a bit. Like the AD's role, as I understand it in most programs, is basically just to serve as more of an administrative sign-off on a schedule. As in, "Yes, you have the budget to fly to Florida, and then hit up X, Y and Z later in the year." Your init...

Blue Man

I admire the optimism. Based on our OOC I would still be hesitant to believe how good this team can be since there are so few tests on the schedule. The talent is there - the talent has also been there the first 3 years, and we’ve limped to the finish. This is the easiest schedule we’ll have had in ...

You know if you turned off the TV this was a lovely Saturday and Sunday to go and do things.

If you had the TV on, you're still in the middle of a horrible pandemic.

I hope you guys understand that my post was a little tongue in cheek . We have to keep a semblance of a sense of humor about these things . am I vaccinated ? Of course . do I wear a mask everywhere like in the super market ? No , but until most people have been vaccinated I can see that the goal of...

It's just kind of weird to me that Fordham *wants* to stay in the Atlantic 10 to get the crap kicked out of them most years. Like, if this was a Vanderbilt-in-a-power-conference situation, that would make sense to me. The TV money is so good in that, you take your medicine each year. The Atlantic 1...

I just don't understand the logic. If you can eat and drink without your mask on- Covid doesn't escape your mouth? What if something exciting happens mid-bite? Then you're yelling - but Covid knows better than to infect those around you? And last I checked - the mask requirement isn't for N-95, surg...
